I think the fact that the Focus and Fiestas sold from 2011-2016 had defective transmissions (complete with class action settlement) already destroyed their brand momentum in the small car market.

You can always just compile it yourself for your own Pixel 2 device. Or use LineageOS which runs on a far wider range of devices and doesn't charge $500 for binaries.

You certainly can get away from Google on Android. Install a version without Google Play Services. There's lots of software available on F-Droid or the Amazon appstore. WhatsApp provides an APK download so you don't need the play

Ah yes you're right of course. Has there been anything in the past few years made on modern processes with the die actually visible? Desktop/laptop CPUs and GPUs have all been flip chip for at least the past decade, mobile SoCs ar

It has nothing to do with scale, it's either LGPL or pay for a commercial license. The commercial licenses are not cheap- $459 per seat per month.

For I think a vast, vast majority of people this is delusional. For probably over 90% of people whose passion is writing music for example, they will in fact become homeless if they try to make it their only source of income. Even a lot of

Solid lead is not really a problem if you wash your hands before eating after handling it because it doesn't absorb through the skin. Whether or not these people actually did that, I have no idea. But to this day there's still ple

Why are you using a fancy 2.8Ghz dual-core machine when you could be using a netbook from 2008 with a 1.6Ghz Atom and 512MB of RAM? Is it that strange that people have different use cases from you? Plenty of things peg the CPU at 100% for e

Do you have a source for this? It doesn't seem to make any sense because the speed sensor is normally used as an input for the engine and brake control systems. Not to mention the fact that the sensor is already extremely light because

The 8th gen U series is not "basically matching" the 7th gen H series, the base clock (i.e. what you actually get under load) of the i7-7700HQ is 47% higher than the i7-8650U.

You were specifically referring to people with no jobs collecting disability benefits. I certainly agree that people obtaining these drugs when they don't need them through insurance/medicare/medicaid is a problem.

This doesn't take up an enormous amount of shop space, can be used on arbitrarily large workpieces, and probably requires far less calibration and maintenance work. I have a 2' x 2' CNC router and can easily think of usecases

I would be thrilled if 99.9% of my input files were UTF-8, but I'm not the one writing them. SJIS remains in widespread use in Japanese companies and tons of legacy codebases do not work with UTF-8. If you're lucky there's a

Will it ever get encoding autodetect? That's one of the big reasons I've stayed on Notepad++. VS Code clearly does detect the encoding, because when you go to change it it suggests the right one, but it doesn't load correct

The entire reason that AMD hardware isn't considered a viable alternative to NVIDIA is that it doesn't run CUDA, which is going to be true of these custom chips too. The chips FB are working on are probably far more similar to Goo

There's no real inherent reliability difference between SD and eMMC, it's all down to the individual controller implementation. Though some SD slots are quite flaky, i.e. the original RasPi models. The eMMC that orangePi uses se

The orangePi boards don't use microSD, they have built in eMMC storage. Far more reliable.
